It wasn't difficult to investigate what happened to Tong Yunyao; the Crown Princess had someone investigate and found out.
Seeing the results, the Crown Princess was somewhat tempted. Tong Yunyao's source of information was her maternal family, which was the Emperor's maternal and paternal families.
This news is quite reliable.
In addition, she discovered more things. For example, it is actually most effective to use the blood of the person whose luck is being borrowed to write the birth date and time for the best results. Tong Yunyao used her own blood, since she couldn't access Tong Cheng'er's blood.
The two share the same ancestor, and although their blood relation is somewhat distant, it still has an effect.
When the Crown Princess learned of this, she began to plot in private. She was not confident about doing such a thing. In the end, she thought about her own situation. If she could really borrow the Fourth Prince's luck, would she be able to be like the Fourth Prince?
The more I thought about it, the more likely it seemed, and I became completely mesmerized.
"Granny, go and find out what Fourth Brother's wife has been up to lately?"
The old nanny was taken aback. She had also handled the investigation of Tong Yunyao. Instead of exposing Consort Tong, the master was inquiring about the Fourth Consort, which made the old nanny a little scared.
"This servant hopes that Master will reconsider."
The old nanny is older and thinks more deeply. It's hard to say whether this is true or not. If others find out, the Crown Princess is using her own sister-in-law for personal gain. His Majesty might think that the Crown Princess he chose has something wrong with her brain.
She didn't want to try anything unknown; she felt that life was good enough as it was now and there was no need to take risks.
The Crown Princess remained silent upon hearing this, a hint of unease flashing across her face before she said with some displeasure, "Granny, I've had enough of this kind of life."
She didn't ask for much, just to have a child. Besides, she thought the Fourth Prince's wife wouldn't mind if she borrowed some blood from her.
At this point, she was somewhat obsessed and wouldn't listen to anyone.
She has been a strong-willed person since childhood. She seems indifferent to marriage, but the effort she puts in behind the scenes is something that others cannot see.
After working so hard for so long, the result told her that she was not as happy as someone who did nothing, and she inevitably got stuck in a rut.
Seeing that her persuasion was ineffective, the nanny had no choice but to do as she was told, since she had no other option as her life and fortune were in her master's hands!
News about the Fourth Prince's wife is also easy to find out.
“My lord, Fourth Prince Consort has been staying in the mansion most of the time lately. She occasionally visits Third Prince Consort and Fifth Prince Consort, but more often it is Third Prince Consort and Fifth Prince Consort who visit Fourth Prince Consort.”
The Crown Princess was taken aback. She knew that the Third Prince's wife and the Fourth Prince's wife were close. At first, she found it strange, but later she got used to it. But when did the Fifth Prince's wife become so close to the Fourth Prince's wife?
How come these fourth wives are more popular with women than men?
This made the Crown Princess even more convinced of the claim that the Fourth Prince's wife possessed great fortune.
After all, she was really lucky.
“Since the third and fifth sister-in-laws are all on good terms with the fourth sister-in-law, I, as her sister-in-law, can’t be special. Go and prepare a visiting card and give it to the fourth sister-in-law.”
The old woman bowed her head: "Yes, Master."
The invitation was quickly delivered to Tong Cheng'er. Although she was not familiar with the Crown Princess and was somewhat confused by the invitation, she could not refuse it because the Crown Princess was indeed the Crown Princess.
And so, on a sunny afternoon, the Crown Princess went to the Fourth Prince's residence with her entourage. When she arrived, the Third Prince's wife and the Fifth Prince's wife were already there.
The moment the Crown Princess arrived, the relaxed atmosphere between the three of them vanished instantly.
Tong Cheng'er felt something was amiss. She didn't usually interact much with the Crown Princess, and due to special circumstances, she didn't want to have too much contact with her.
In addition, the Crown Princess is usually quite reserved and not the type to take the initiative, so their relationship can be summarized as that of familiar strangers.
In fact, not only Tong Cheng'er, but also the Third and Fifth Prince's wives felt very uncomfortable.
The Crown Princess didn't seem to feel anything.
After all, she usually acts like this when attending banquets.
So she didn't feel strange or uncomfortable at all.
Tong Cheng'er was probably used to the formal interactions with the Third and Fifth Prince's wives and felt uncomfortable.
What made her even more uneasy was that she felt the Crown Princess was acting strangely today, making her want to stay far away from her.
After exchanging pleasantries for a while, the Crown Princess suddenly said, "I heard that my fourth brother specially built a pavilion in the lake for his wife in the mansion. I wonder if I would have the honor of going to see it?"
Tong Cheng'er: "It wasn't specially built for me. It's mainly because our master likes to go boating on the lake. If the Crown Princess is interested, she can naturally go and take a look."
Tong Cheng'er felt it was a waste to build this pavilion in the lake. Although it was built after she married into the family, she swore it had nothing to do with her. But what happened?
No one believed it when it was told, and eventually everyone said that the Fourth Prince granted his Fourth Consort's every wish.
She felt extremely wronged.
In fact, she thought that the reason why Yinzhen built the pavilion in the lake was probably because he felt that he had too much money and it was too much of a burden to keep it.
This is her version of me.
The reason why Yinzhen built the pavilion in the lake was actually related to her, although she herself was unaware of this connection.
While on duty, he met his brother-in-law, Tong Xuewen. Over two days, he learned that the young princess had loved boating as a child, but was too lazy to go out, which is why the pavilion in the lake came into being.
His only miscalculation was that people's likes and dislikes can change.
When Tong Cheng'er was a child, she casually mentioned something she didn't even remember, so naturally she didn't have much of an impression of it.
So a misunderstanding was created.
When Yinzhen learned of the misunderstanding, he only said that he liked it, and said nothing else.
